Dygeasy: That normally is the procedure.

I'm only irked by no one showing interest yet.
They are interested, I'm sure. But I think many writers are still trying to recover from the data loss. I have recovered (I lost only my short story, I still have its original document with me though grin )


Nice diary you have there.

Season one still brings fond memories. *nostalgic*

do you want to know what i feel the problem is?

For one, we have new crop of writers who weren't around in the first season and so might be alien to this concept.

With that in mind you have to explicitly state what the initiative is about.

Then find a means to get other writer to see this. As for me, I just might try my hand out on this in the later part of the write up

You're not wrong.

But asking questions would have eliminated all the tardiness.

I'm just going to post the way it was done and will be done again in my next post.

And yeah season one was fun enough.

It would be a honour to work with you. smiley

Dygeasy: Hellooo, all lovers of literature and Nairaland Literature Section. We've done this before, let's do it again. Making a story out of this forum. View the first edition here; www.nairaland.com/1358287/#16794840


This is how this is going to work, it would be a collaborative writing. Interested writers only have to show interest on this thread and everyone can drop one or two suggestions as to how we can improve on this innovation.


special shoutout to everyone that worked with me last year;


Dygeasy
HumbledbyGrace
Ishilove
Xynerise
Mazi Omenuko
Eze Promoe
MrBrownJay
Flow1759



They were great people to work with.

Indicate interest here and let's do this.

You must have or have had a thread on this board to be able to participate in this.

Thank you!!!

Sounds interesting but what's the underlying concept / theme of the participating writers' write-ups? Does it have to be based on writing about nlanders?

If not, count me in, otherwise I'll be a happy spectator.

Nairalanders' usernames and the e-personality attached to the handles are going to be used in the character development. The setting NAIRALAND will be chosen based on the discretion and mutual agreement of the writers.

Based on this you'd be a happy spectator. Do you not know enough about Nairalanders grin

No, I don't like writing about real people, fiction or otherwise, so I guess I'll be a happy spectator. If you do come up with something more challenging, then do hollar. I'm thinking more in line of Larry's collaboration thread with the detective theme which was way out of my comfort zone but an interesting challenge.

Why not do something similar too? (could be a different theme). That will be one sure way to bring out your participating writers' creativity as not only will they have to produce something off the back of the previous writer, they'll also have to ensure the story is streamlined and just as interesting, if not more...

Just a suggestion though.

Oh! If going by this, I don't know enough Nairalanders neither their e-personality. I guess I'm out too.

I will also prefer fiction characters. Larry, how about that collaboration? I've forgotten the guy who initiated it.
